Description
These are two early 18th-century cottages, which have recently been converted into shops. They are one storey in height with an attic. The walls are roughcast-rendered brick, and the roof is covered with plain tiles, featuring three hipped dormer windows. There are two front doors; one is original from the 18th century and features six panels, set within plain wooden architraves. A side passage is located to the north. Two modern shop windows have been inserted. The buildings are included on the heritage register for their group value.
